Here's a truly Artistic Photo. Fame and glory to anyone who can figure out where it was taken.
It'll have to be another short post tonight, as it's pretty late and I just got home. Went out with the missionaries tonight and talked to a couple of nice people. Then I brought them to our house, fed them ice cream and cookies, and took them home. That pretty much took up the whole day, though.
I drove the truck to work today. Those new tires really make a difference. There's much less noise and a much smoother ride now. I guess I don't mind so much spending a bunch of money on one of the cars as long as I can tell the difference when it's done.
I don't think I mentioned earlier that Loyal Reader Number Four and I went to a used book sale at the library on Saturday. We happened to be there when they announced the "buck a bag" sale, so we got a couple of bags and stocked up on a bunch of books we only sort of wanted. We can throw them away when we're finished with them. The upside is that I have a large stock of obscure books for Morrowlife Book Club fodder. I'm sure my Loyal Readers can hardly wait. Mine are mostly books from the 70's about auto racing. That was a really good era for racing, so I'm looking forward to reading them. I also got one about fly fishing, which I would very much like to have the time to learn how to do. I think there's a gardening book in there somewhere too. LRN4's books appear to be mostly kids' stuff - Newberry award winners, etc. I'll add to the Book Club list as I get to them.
Speaking of which, I've finished everything previously on the list, plus another Wodehouse title whose name escapes me right now. It was about high-school-aged boys at a boarding school and their shenanigans. Nobody could write light fiction about upper-class twits quite like Wodehouse. I added a couple more of his books to my Gadget this afternoon, which will make it to the book club list Real Soon Now.
That's all for tonight. See you on Friday!

I'm pretty sure that that picture came from when we were in PA. Wasn't it that one historical site where there was that big icehouse, and that MASSIVE barn, and like an iron refinery or something like that?
I'm quite certain that picture was taken at the iron refinery in ... umm.... Someplace, Pennsylvania. I recall the furnace and numerous other pieces of machinery quite well (in fact, there is at least one other picture taken in that same location on this blog - the one with Mark standing over the vent of the furnace looking rather evil) but for the life of me I can't remember the name of the place. Anyway, I can prove my evidence of Dad's grammar error is unedited by the creation and edit dates of the file on my computer. They match exactly, proving that it has not been changed since it was taken. So there.
I'm sorry, but we need the name of the place. Fame and glory will just have to wait.
I am headed for fame and glory. The picture is from French Creek State Park in PA near Reading.
That was me. The site was acting funny and didn't give me an opportunity to sign my name. I'm the one who knows it is French Creek.
Okay, to be more specific, it's a picture from Hopewell Furnace near French Creek where we were camping at the time.
You win!
Yesterday I amended my answer to be Hopewell Furnace near where we were camping at French Creek State Park in PA. I'm ready for fame and glory. (I don't know what happened to the post I added last night!)
I can see both of your notes. I trust you've been enjoying your fame and glory for the past couple of days.
